it had to be done. i had to make a play to bring back my beloved kellogg's 'honey nut loops'...
To whom this may concern,
I am writing to you to express my utmost regret in finding that my all-time favourite cereal has ceased its production. Of course the product to which I refer with such emotion and distain is the once legendary, Kellogg’s ‘Honey Nut Loops’.
I have just returned from an 11-year mission in St. Lucia spreading the good word of our Lord God Almighty. Upon my return, my first port of call was to seek out the cereal which had filled my china bowl with such delectable wonderment all those years ago. Why it was the mere thought of the nuts and honey on those loopy loops on a milk-sloshed golden spoon which had kept me sane when times had seemed so pitiful during my stint in Soufriere in which I even contemplated suicide whilst I questioned my own faith... and now I have been spited with such ire I can only pass my fury on to you. Why would one want to eat ‘Honey Nut Loops’ now that they are just ‘Honey Loops’? One must ask as to why you would show such an error of judgement? God will speak and his words will shoot forth from his prized tongue to decree that ‘wonderful cereal should not be tampered with!’ Must you risk the wrath of the Lord Almighty for the sake of the removal of nuts from a product?
After this episode, I must say that I am feeling disconnected from Kellogg as a brand as I feel that there is no other cereal which could even come close to filling this sweet, nutty void that does reside in my heart. I beg of thee; bring back my beloved or else please bring something similar. How can I go on without the one true essence that kept me sane in my hour of doubt and need.
Yours faithfully,
Rev. Samuel Diss

you can still buy lucky charms in the UK...
"Sweets from Heaven" (a confectionery chainstore) sell them, as does the Bentalls centre if you're anywhere near Kingston... but they're £6 a box.
I fuckin LOVED Honey nut loops...
oh yeah, add some Wonka Xploder chocolate to that list... that bar was SICK - it had pop rocks (space dust/ fizz wizz) IN the friggin chocolate!

He knows.
I was thinking about how much I missed Lucky Charms the other day.
Cereal these days is so boring.

I know it sounds mental at first but it's really not. It's actually brilliant.

Salt and Vinegar Monster Munch
I have mourned it's passing since 1989
Back in a time when Monster Munch wasn't a tiny little pussy crisp. They used to be much bigger with more bite. Now they're all airy and shite.
These thread is gold

Still no word from Babylon, I think they might be ignoring us. Perhaps we should take it out to the streets?

This is pissing me off. I want my ice cream.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing you in regards to my two previous emails that I sent you, one at 6.17 PM of April 27th of this year, and the latter at 10.31 PM of the same day. As you can see, this was two days ago. I personally run a company, and I see it as courteous to respond to my clients' emails on the day that they were sent; Myself and various other employees regularly check all of our various email accounts to ensure excellent customer service.
Now, I can understand that with your business being a multinational and multibillion pound business and mine being a small Alpaca sheep breeding business, it may occasionally be difficult for you or one of your employees to check the emails every day, especially since the emails were sent in the evening, but it has now been over 48 hours since my first email and not a single person from your company that (quote Wikipedia) "employed 174,000 people and had a worldwide revenue of €40.5 billion in 2008" has had the grace or courtesy to respond yet.
I personally think that this is an outrage and am personally going to contact the Food Standards Agency to complain about your frankly pathetic customer service. Me and a number of family, friends, acquaintances and employees have also boycotted Unilever, and considering this is over 13 people, may significantly jeopardize your company's success. I also used to buy Unilever shampoo to wash my herd of 253 Alpaca sheep, each needing around three quarters of your 'Sunsilk' range of shampoo each weekly, and then a further whole bottle each of your 'Sunsilk' range of conditioner every two weeks to keep them looking nice and fresh.
Please take into consideration the trauma you have caused me with not only taking away my dream of eating every ice cream to come onto the UK market for the rest of my life, but having very poor customer service, and essentially ruining a perfectly good herd of Alpacas, as 'Sunsilk' is the only brand of shampoo that makes them want to mate and look freshed.
Yours Sincerely,
